thirty feet deep and reclaimed 1900
acres of waste land. These wells are
turning the deserts of nprthern Africa

by which is to be unlocked the future

MEN GONE MAD AFTER MONEY.

Those booms ia Alabama and Ten
nessee are dangerous things for the
peace and happiness of the minds of
fortune hunters. They are likely to
explode any time and blow reason
from the brain and dollars from the
pockets. The report comes from
Birmingham and Chattanooga that
people are perfectly wild in their
mad rush for making fortunes in a
day. 1t is not a building boom, it is
real estate boom. The building part
is not thought OF to any reasonable
extent. 1t is to buy lots and sell
them at double the prices paid. 1t
is craze as much as ever affected a
gambler with the infatuation Of a
gaming table. The people in these
cities are drunk on speculation. They
are making haste to get rich, under
an excitement and a strain that shows
how completely given over to the
worship of mammon is this generation.
God is apparently forgotten in the
absorption of forming "syndlcates,
"corner lots" $50 much per front
foot" and Options" Wall street in
New York never presented wilder
scene than is being enacted by the
real-estatc boomers in Birmingham
and Chattanooga. Lots have beer
sold at such enormous prices that
cannot be improved and made TO pas
a fair interest no matter what should
transpire in the growth of the re.
spective places. The reaction il
bound to come when the capitalists
get through unloading, and ther
some body will cry out Il am ruin.

A BUSTED BOOM.

A pretty legal fight was brought
to issue at Birmingham, by the First
National Banks presentation all
around town Of a New Work draft
with certificates attached to pay foI
Ensley City land stock, of which
something over 100000 worth was
placed there about month ago by
Mudd & Co., stock brokers. In pur-
suance Of an agreement Of nearly all
the subscribers, payment was refused
except IN a very few cases, and any
further action that may be taken to
collect the money viii be resisted Ill
the courts, counsel having already
been retained. Concealmcut and
misrepresentation as to the extent
and value Of the company's property
and other tahir devices will do alleg-
ed on the part OF the subscribers.
The stock belonged to Col. VIM. NJ.
Duncan, shrewd Nashville opera
tor, but the defense will probably at
tack certain representations lAat
were made by prospectus signed by
several Of the directors and issued a
few days before the stock was put on
the market, as well as those Of his
agents, Messrs, Mudd y Go. The
bulk OF the stock, which seems to be
larger than most of the subscribers
understood, aud the impecuniosity Of
spectators, who were allowed to sign
for it, expecting to turn it loose at d
profit before payday came, have
broken down the price. 1t was sold
at sixty cents, and just now it is
doubtful if FIVE could be got for it.

STRANGE. BUT TRUE.

Several years ago, not far from
this place lived a farmer who invari-
ably killed a goat every Saturday
evening. On one occasion he placed
the goats head, as usual, on block.
and with one blow OF a sharp ak, SOW
cred the head from the body. The
head rolled several feet away and
bleated three. times, distinctly, after
being scyered.-Aiapaha Star.
An incident similar to the above
occurred in Ilawkinsylle a few years
ago. 4 woll-known citiAen bought a
logger-head turtle and had it killed
and soup made of it for dinner. Next
morning the dead turtles head caught
chicken in the yard and was hold
ing on with death grip. The chick
en- was caught, and the turtles mouth
aaa opened with "a knife and the
chicken released. Hawiiasvile Dis

A SAD ACCIDENT.

Gainesville Courant-American: a
most distressing accident occurred
on the Burnt Hickory road, in Pauld-
ing county, about ten miles from
Cartersville, Monday morning, IN
which a lady suffered injuries that
will in all probability cost her her
life. Mrs. Calvin Cochran, at the
time mentioned, was busy working
with q sewing machine in front Of the
FIRE place, when her dress caught
fire. The flames spread rapidly to
other portions Of her body, she be-
came panic stricken and ran out into
the yard, where she met . stepson
who threw a quilt over her. The fire
soon consumed the quilt and the
poor unfortunate then ran to a tub Of
water and threw herself in, thus ex-
tinguishing the flames that had al
most consumed everything that could
be. Doctors were summoned at
once, and it was plain that the burns
were fatal. Her back from the
crown Of her head to her feet was
one charred mass, while her front
was terribly burnt. The sight wa:
sickening. The lady was a daughter
or neice Of the late Mr. Hiram Good
win, Of Kingston, and was good
Christian lady This is very sac
occurrence, made more 50 by the fact
that three little children viii in al
probability lose a noble and goot
mother.

On Thursday last an unknown
man was brought to st. Mary's Hos
pital, Detroit, who, it was said, had
fallen at one OF the car works. His
entire left side war paralyzed, and he
was insensible. He lay in a comatose
condition until yesterday, when the
doctors came to the conclusion that
the paralysis was caused by a blood
clot in the brain, which they believed
to be in certain locality. They cut
a circular piece out OF the skull three
quarters Of an inch in diameter, and
the diagnosis was SO accurate that on
removing the bone thus sawed out
the suspected blood clot was imme-
diately discovered. 1t was emoved.
and almost instantly signs of life were
noticed in the limbs of the left side.
The hole was filled with tissue, which
will be gradually withdrawn so as to
avoid Inflammation by too sudden a
change in the shape of the brain.
The man regained consciousness and
the use of the paralyzed side.
